Yes. In September, thieves using a blowtorch and power tools stole nuggets of raw gold worth about $700,000 from the National Museum of Natural History, a few subway stops from the Louvre in Paris.
That same month, two porcelain dishes and a vase worth about €9.5 million, or about $11 million, were stolen from the Adrien Dubouché National Museum in Limoges, France. And in 2024, thieves stole elaborate snuff boxes from the Cognacq-Jay Museum in Paris.

Damn, I hope they know what these pieces are worth and at the least sell it to some worthy collector who knows how to take care of them.
